The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) 
is the central research and development organization for the Department of Defense (DoD). It manages and directs selected basic and applied research and development projects for DoD, and pursues research and technology where risk and payoff are both very high and where success may provide dramatic advances for traditional military roles and missions.

Favorite places to visit within the DARPA site.
